I covered the games and social media beats. In the process, I traded jokes with T-Pain, stalked Mark Zuckerberg and was retweeted by Justin Bieber. I'm no longer a Forbes reporter, but if for some reason you would like to reach me, you can find me at ForbesOliver {at} gmail {dot} com.

Facebook's New Headquarters: Liveblog

I’m here in Menlo Park City Council Chambers liveblogging Facebook’s event on Tuesday morning. Facebook is expected to announce its new headquarters, formerly the campus of Sun/Oracle.

10:40am: How many parking spaces does the new campus have? It has 3,700 spaces.

Do you have the option to buy the campus? Yes.

How many jobs do you think might come to the area? I don’t know but we’re going to set up a dedicated Menlo Park site for jobs. You can go to the site on the Facebook job page. We’ll have a recruiter dedicated to Menlo Park.

Will you have Google perks, ie laundry, chefs? Our goal is to make Facebook exciting in our way. We’ll have perks unique to Facebook. We do offer free food to our employees at Facebook, and it’s delicious.
